Effects of crop species on soil functions and soil multifunctionality are species‐specific

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Soil multifunctionality is essential for sustainable agriculture, as soils not only need to support crop growth but also maintain soil biodiversity and sustain other critical ecosystem functions.

Large‐scale importance of bark beetle outbreaks for standing deadwood and woodpeckers

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study shows for the first time that large‐scale long‐term dynamics of bark beetle infestations are beneficial for woodpeckers and positively influence their population numbers by providing deadwood resources. Abstract Resource pulses associated with forest disturbances can significantly influence biological communities, with interacting and ...

Long‐term population dynamics of western tent caterpillars: History, trends and causes of cycles

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
The length and in‐depth nature of this population study make it unique. It represents perhaps the most extensive monitoring of viral infection in a wild insect population. We have used laboratory and field experiments to test many hypotheses about mechanisms that potentially impact the dynamics of this cyclic species.

Subtle stressors—Strong responses. Consistent negative effects of avian blood parasites on phenotypic and demographic traits across songbirds

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Avian blood parasites are widespread and often considered benign, yet mounting evidence suggests they subtly impair host traits. This meta‐analysis is timely and necessary to quantify their true impact across systems, challenging assumptions and highlighting overlooked consequences for fitness and population dynamics. Abstract Stressors that subtly yet
